" 'Appucatim mea september-2, wat. semi nav-sana" To all whomc't may concewzj."l ,l

Be it known that I, SAMUEL ZETLIN, arcit may beof anyappropriate and preferred the like and' a sheet e of 10th, which naar izen ofthe United States, residing at Balti- :kindand' color, and thecloth sheet is larger,` y

more city, in the State of Maryland, have invented certain new and 'useful Improvements 'in Reenforoed Detachable Pockets, of which the following vis a specification. .l

This invention relates to garment-pockets,..-

especially to an improved v'reenforced detachable pocket, andmore specificallyto an improved yself-securingfeature of such deis to provide an exceedingly simple and -thoroughly effective ieenforced removable -tachable pocket.

The-main ob]ect of the present invention r" pocket that is especially useful for' railway l conductors and others who collect fares and other moneys, which is devoid o f metal parts 20'* that rust orvcorr'ode, and which includes, as

an inherent element, an ei'cient means to prevent the removable pocket 'from becoming accidentally detached or raised vout of i' theA permanent pocket or slit in which it is i and exit of the hand'of the user.

contained when being used.

'Another object is to prende a jacket of .excessive strength and Astability consistent with the-'important features -of exibihty.

and ease of accessto its interior, at the samel time ro viding Y comparatively smooth rounde margins of the pockets mouth, to facilitate quick and comfortableentrance Otherobjectsfand important features will be pointed `out or implied inthe following..

-Whichsimilar reference numerals correspond details ofdescriptio'n, -in connection with the 'accompanying drawmgs, in which,f.

Fig. 1 is an elevation' or face view, and Fig. 2 a vertical sectional view, the sectional. plane being alongthe line 2-2 of Fig. 1.- v

` Referring totheseA drawings in.detail,in

` to .simlarf 'parts' throughout the several ferred material and of any. appropriate The pocketing or bag maybe of any prshape, but is preferably of the shapeshown,

including downwardly diverging sides, being considerably broader at the bottom thanat the central and upper part, and having shoulders 2 at the upper ends ofthe diverg-v ing sides,'the mouth or opening 3 ofthe lv`pocketing or bag being considerably 'nar-1 grower or shorter than the width of the main part of the .pocketing or.*bag.

4 A reenforcing and attaching sheet or plate-v 4 preferably includes a Sheet 1* of leather or than the leathersheet and has its vedges'extendlng beyond all edges of the leather sheet and thus provides. a very convenient. and

effectivestitch-receiving border'or margin 5 through which the protecting plate Vmay be `sewed ,to the coat or other garment` having a permanent pocket in which this removable or detachable pocket may be placed, orto suchcoat' or garment that has'a Ahorizontal l slit into* which the pocketing or bag-of-this pocket may begplaced in lieu of a stationary pocket. Itshould be understood that this device is mosteffective, useful and-economiover the shoulders 2 andeiectively prevent displacement of the detachable pocket even -if the -user of the garment neglects to secure'- ly stitch or pin the edges 5 of the cloth plate" to the' garment. Moreover, the general enlargement of thepocketing or bag, beyond the extent of the 'slit which fits around the part above the shoulders 2, makes it diiiicult to accidentallyremove the pocket, especially' when its 'bottom is iilled with coins whichl vpress laterally against theends and sides ofA 'the pocketing 'or'bag and causes it to bind in the permanent pocket when" used. in such permanentpocket.

The leathersheet'45e is substantially plane throughout -its extent and 4has a slit 3" .i

through its central part, and solid or inherently united.. partsof this sheetseparate the ends of thisfslit from the marginal edgesof vthe leather sheet. :The shape of the cloth sheet issubstantially' the same asthat of the :leather sheet, vand its central-'slit is in registration with that of the-leather slit, the ends f' ofitsslit being separated from 'its marginal edges by inherently united or solid parts.

.These .solid ,ends of lthe 'registering loo slits combine -to .oer excessive resistance.

to'anv-tendency of theslits to 'become extended by tearing or' ripping as where such slits are not terminated 1n such solid parts. 'Marginal seams 5'* secure the margin of the leather vbinding and protecting stri 6 emj- .leather sheet 4 to the cloth-sheet 4".- A

pliable piping which facilitates the ease and comfort' with which they handl of the user I. can enter the pocket, i g

" From the foregoing, it may be seen that the plates or sheets 4? and 4* combine, not onlyto ferraille-substantial piping atj, but also "vexert their,l combined strength in supporting i. :coat-I, other garment fromwhich it may be f fthe bag 1 when heavily loaded with coin or f .the like, in addition fto.providing`fthe secur' ingedge or'fm'argin 5 'in which'a long marginal seam may be `made to unite it -With'the detached'bymerelyripping this latter seam.

.I do not intend to limitl my patent-prof'v tection totheex'aet lconstruction and arrangement here shown, but claim'. all equivf n 'alent' constructions 'Within :the scope 0`f' the invention, -as impliedA and c laimedi herein,

What I claim is: v

As an 'article of separate manufacture adapted to bfi-attached mand detached from al garment havingl a Islit therein, apoeketA ing the pochette-'a comprising a bag adapted -Atofbe extended ',through" Said sl1t, a vsubstantially plane leather sheethaving a slit through its cen- .tr-al part, a substantially plane' cloth sheet `having a slitV through its central part in reg istr'ation -With 'said slitof the leather sheet, the ends of these registering slits being separated from the margins ofl said sheets by means of 'solidfparts of both plates, a'leather binding and' `protecting."strip extending through the registering slitsand embracing these-sheets and anedge .of the bags opening, stitching vst ecuring Said bindingv and protecting stripy to said sheetsand bag in there- -latlon for forming a lsubstantial piping at the-'bags opening, and 'a marginal row of stitchingsecuringjthe vmargin of said leather 'sheet to said clot-h sheet, -themargin of said cloth sheet. extending freely beyond all router edge portions of said leather sheet and thusproviding a'convenient and durable means for attaching and detaching andre-attachgarment or garments by `pinso'r stitching.
